It was the night shift and Neji was on the futon, lying on his side facing the opposite wall. Sasuke sat in a chair beside Naruto’s bed, tracing his finger over the dozens of stitched wounds on Naruto’s torso. He was sending tiny pulses of chakra into them imagining that he could speed the healing.
He was thinking of his mother and how she would do this for him when he would come home with cuts and scrapes after hard training and even harder playing. His lip twitched as he remembered her telling him that Uchiha chakra had magical properties which took away pain and healed cuts and scrapes faster.
Now he knew better, but as he recalled that his pain would indeed disappear at her suggestion he realized that it was his mother who had magical properties.
He closed his eyes as small pangs that never quite went away pierced his heart.
“I’m proud of you.”
Sasuke opened his eyes and looked at Naruto through the dark.
“You saved the world,” Naruto continued quietly.
Sasuke squeezed his hand.
“Don’t give me too much credit. I was only thinking of you.”
Naruto gave a lopsided smile. “Well, you saved me, too.”
Sasuke leaned closer.
“In many cultures, that would mean that I now own you.”
Naruto huffed a quiet laugh.
“But,” Sasuke continued in a husky murmur. “I suppose that’s only fair,” he reached out and caressed a cheek, “since you own me.”
Naruto hummed contentedly.
“How are you feeling?”
Naruto shrugged.
“Neji said you’re in a lot of pain.”
“I feel better than I did. Getting up and getting clean has made a huge difference.”
Sasuke nodded.
“This shit’s just taking forever,” Naruto muttered grouchily.
Sasuke raised a brow. “Welcome to the world of us mere mortals.”
Naruto blushed. “Oh, yeah.”
Sasuke got a heavy lidded look on his face and reached down to run his fingers lightly between Naruto’s legs.
Naruto’s breathing deepened and Sasuke felt an immediate reaction in his lover's body.
“Maybe I can make you feel even better,” Sasuke whispered.
Naruto closed his eyes and groaned quietly. Then he opened his eyes and looked beyond Sasuke to Neji lying on the floor facing the other way.
“Neji’s right there,” he said, stating the obvious.
“He’s sleeping,” Sasuke said as he rearranged the blanket and Naruto’s gown, exposing Naruto to his gaze.
Longing filled him as he gripped the hardening length and stroked it in just the way that he’d learned excited Naruto most.
He leaned up and pressed his lips briefly to Naruto’s then moved down to take Naruto into his mouth.
“Fuck,” Naruto whispered, his eyes squeezed shut.
Sasuke was very careful to touch only that part of Naruto, and alternated light licks with more aggressive sucks as he lost himself in Naruto’s pleasure.
Naruto’s leg muscles tightened and he gasped. Sasuke recognized this gasp as one of pain and he raised his head.
“Let me do everything,” he whispered. “Just relax and let it come.” He traced his fingers over Naruto’s thigh, soothing. “Let it come.”
“Sasuke…”
“Let me take care of you. Let me…” Sasuke untied his pants and let them drop to the floor. He crawled up on the bed and very carefully straddled Naruto’s hips, making sure he didn’t put any pressure anywhere on Naruto’s body. Then he reached down, aligned himself and took Naruto in his body.
They both panted, unmoving for several moments, Naruto clutching the sheets, his breath stuttering in and out of his lungs.
Then Sasuke started to move, one hand stroking himself, the other pressing Naruto’s lips.
“Shh. Relax. Close your eyes and let it happen. Let me do everything.”
It only took a few moments for Naruto to find completion and as Sasuke felt the pulses inside his body, he found his own, catching his release in his hand so that they would not have to clean the mess from Naruto’s wounds.
The two looked at each other for a long moment, then Naruto brought Sasuke’s hand to his mouth and used his tongue to clean the slippery fingers.
When Naruto was finished, Sasuke leaned forward, his hands on either side of Naruto’s head.
“You are the breath in my body and the blood in my veins. Without you I will die.”
Naruto touched his cheek, but was aware of scents coming from ten feet away; arousal. And tears.
“My assignment will be over soon,” Neji said. He was lying on his back, staring at the ceiling.
“I’ll bet you’ll be glad,” Sasuke said quietly.
Neji had gotten quieter and quieter over the last couple of days and had been responding less and less to Sasuke’s attempts to engage him in conversation or activities. Therefore it surprised him that Neji was actually initiating a conversation.
“Will you continue to be the guard after we go home, or will you assign someone else?”
When Neji didn’t answer, he looked over and saw the look of surprise on Neji’s face.
“What?”
“The Anbu Corps is relieved of duty the moment Naruto steps out of this room.”
“What? Wait. I don’t understand. What does that mean?” Sasuke frowned. “You’re not going home with us?”
“No.”
“Who’s taking over then?”
“He is,” Neji said, indicating Naruto, who was sleeping.
“What?” Sasuke said sharply. “His leg will still be in a cast. He’ll be on crutches.”
“The council has bristled at the waste of resources as I guarded him here. Guarding a guard? They have not been happy. I was only able to gain permission because I was able to guard both of you. They wanted me to return to regular duty as soon as he woke up.”
“He was supposed to guard me from a hospital bed,” Sasuke repeated in disbelief.
“It comes down to the bottom line. While he and I are both out of commission, revenues are being lost.”
“For fuck’s sake…” Sasuke growled.
“It is a testament of sorts. To him. The council feels that, even from a hospital bed, he is a more capable ninja than I am.”
“That can’t be true,” Sasuke said.
Neji shrugged. “It is not important.” He looked at Sasuke. “Before we part ways, though, I did want to speak with you. As a friend. I know you have struggled these last days and I wanted to tell you…”
Neji fidgeted uncharacteristically and Sasuke lie on his side facing Neji and waited.
“What is it?” he finally asked.
“I wanted to tell you…I think you do this love thing very well.”
Sasuke frowned. “No, I don’t.”
“You do…”
“No, I keep thinking about what you said. About the tea. The blankets.” Sasuke rubbed his finger along the stitching in the mattress. “I’ve never done those things for him.”
“A stranger could do those things for him. They are comfort, not love. You have taught me that.”
Sasuke looked back at Neji, who was studying the ceiling.
“What you do for him is extraordinary. You show him…inside. All of you. Everything.” Neji paused. “I would have given him blankets, but it was too difficult to tell him, to show him, how I feel.”
“It was a hard price to pay for me, as well. But I figured out pretty early, that was the only way to win him.”
“You have taught me much, Uchiha Sasuke. Thank you.”
Two days later, Naruto stuffed a large stack of get-well cards into his bag and then leaned heavily on his bed.
There was such a strange feeling in the room.
Neji stood by the window, erect, his hands clasped in front of him, looking at no one.
Sasuke was quiet and tense, casting quick glances at Neji as he shoved his accumulation of things into his own bag.
Finally Sasuke moved to stand in front of Neji.
“You’re so sad.”
Neji just looked at him and raised a brow.
“Your sadness hurts me.”
Neji bowed his head. “All is well.”
“Is it me? Have I hurt you?”
“Certainly not. I have found sharing this duty with you satisfying and look forward to serving with you in the future.” His voice was even more serene than usual.
“Neji…” Sasuke dropped his head and Naruto could feel his confusion and frustration. His…yearning.
Naruto let his instincts be his guide on how to interpret what he felt in the room; longing from both, loneliness from Neji. He made a decision.
“Hey, Neji. You help me with this?”
Neji bowed to Sasuke and went to Naruto, who draped his bag over Neji’s shoulder. Neji tensed. He’d thought they all understood that this was a parting of ways.
“Naruto, I…” he started, but stopped as Sasuke came to stand close beside him, alert.
Naruto put a hand behind each dark head. He looked at Sasuke and pulled him in for a kiss.
“I love you, bastard.”
Naruto felt the air around them fill with anticipation. Sasuke’s body hummed with excitement. Neji’s filled with something akin to terror
Then Naruto fisted Neji’s hair, tilted his head and pulled him close, covering his lips in an equally gentle kiss. After several seconds he pulled back.
“Let’s go home.”
